Japanese Aircraft Online Model Contest 006 - MARK JAHSAN 2
This is the Fine Molds A7M1 done OOB, with Model Master paints and washes. Great kit, I started Sunday, and put the prop on Thurs morning for the pics.
Beautiful model - I like the sparse wash which nicely represents the good condition in which prototypes were kept. Just the extreme wide-angle photography of some pictures disturbs the natural shape. You might take a longer-distance shot and then enlarge the subject to achieve a normal perspective. My vote is 4.6
As others have said the weathering and wash is modest as it should be on a prototype, but enough to bring out the details even in the individual rivets. I vote 4.7
I like that. Really nice finish to the orange. 4.8
